Digitizers: Do you ever digitize anything just for fun?

What Program are you using for doing the digitizing ???

Personally I use Wings software. BUT, if I had a do over I would go with Wilcom. I believe them to be the best around today but with the volume of work I have to produce daily I feel too old a dog to learn a new software and be proficient enough to sustain the volume.

I see many clients ask for pulse formats too.....seems no conversion from wilcom to pulse

the exterior of the embroidered dollhouse is completely finished! the copper gutters and rain chains were installed this weekend. So on to ROOM #1.... the attic sewing room... I mean how can you have an embroidered dollhouse without a sewing room to facilitate construction!??

Here are some pictures of the embroidered art gallery I owned in downtown San Antonio to show some of the items that were digitized just for fun over here. Surely many of you other professional digitizers have done embroidered pieces to help with your creativity as well? To me digitizing and embroidery are two of my passions, not just "a job". How boring THAT would be.

Here are closeups of some of the larger pcs.

You are truly inspirational!
I am hoping to cut back on the "regular" orders this year so that I have time to experiment with the software. I love the size of the hoop you have available to you, and the gold leaf medallion is exquisite.
Thanks for sharing.
